Selkie is the person who manages the office at Timberhead Music, Gordon's label. I imagine that Kendall might know her, since Maine is such a small town. I only know her through email, but she doesn't seem like the moustache tuner type. Which is, of course, a good thing. (No offense, Musicman!)

Aloha,
Mark

One last time to the top..........

I have temporarily postponed work on the video game because I won't have it ready for Christmas and as Christmas is supposed to be fun for all, I worry that kids will be frightened of a Viagra charged, mustachioed character, breaking blocks with his willie as he attempts to find the key to the salesroom and is blown back by women carrying fans. It still needs a lot of work......

So I guess I'll hold off any more postings here and after almost two weeks let this one go............

Dear Gordon,

Please forgive the character that goes by the name of Spaw or Catspaw49. He has been exposed too long to life in the midwest and the dreary existence has led to a befuddlement of his senses wherein he confuses the most mudane items as points of humor. He is flatulent and disagreeable but we love him despite all his faults. He believes himself to be in charge of the NYCFTTS but in actuality he is also a client as he is in the hair club for men.

Kendall will have assured you by now that this website has its share of people who may not be totally integrated into the main stream of modern society as it exists today. This is not necessarily a bad thing. It keeps us off the street and allows Big Brother George to keep an eye on us.

Oh, and please register my order for an Amish-Australian Pitchfork Moustache Tuner.

Thank you,

Naemanson

Good Lord, has it really been 6 years?

Sorry to report that the cost to manufacture the AAPMT has forced me to cease all production. Well, that, and a pair of lawsuits brought on by the Australian Government and the High Council of the Ohio-Pennsylvania Amish Clans. I guess they were just pissed that I was trying to use them in name only as a marketing tool. The Aussies settled for a round of beers but the Amish turned out to be real pricks about the whole thing.

I hope the songbooks went well because there were sure as hell no royalties on the moustache tuner. If they did it was probably because of the free fan. Damn nice fan actually. Without them the songbooks would have bombed. Its a piss poor song book if it can't sing and try as I might, I couldn't get mine to utter even the littlest ditty............oughta' just call it a lyrics and music book because as that its pretty damn good and worth the money.

Anyway, you might as well check the Gordon Bok Website. They still have plenty of songbooks it seems and lots of cd's as well...always nice at Christmas. Sadly though, the fans are no where to be seen......***sigh***..........Seemed like a great promo to me. Also, there is a section on "Gordon Bok Woodcarvings." Seems like he's gotten into whittlin' in a big way and there are some photos of various chunks of wood that he's gouged out and cut on some.

I talked to Gordon at the Getaway last month.

He thinks Spaw is craazier than a shit-house rat.

But he likes the motorized fan thing.

I heard that Kendall dug up the last of the root vegetables from the neighbor's garden--He's planning to drive down to New Hampshire next month and give them to his old friend, former Massachussetts Gov. Mitt Romney.

So check out the CSPAN primary coverage, because you might see Kendall carrying his turnips toward the Mormon.

Oh my Catspaw don't you know
That the wheels are turning so,
The mustache growing easy as it did so long ago,
If I had a thing to tell you, I would tell you one more time,
Kendall's carried all his turnips toward the Mormon.

IS that like carrying coals to Newcastle? The image is compelling, but what is the metaphor?

This thread has become seriously punny.   Of course there's nothing serious about a pun except in the making which can be real serious and cause loss of sleep and huge amounts of good time wasted.

It is the punniness of it Amos.......the sheer punniness,,,check this

Time to resurrect the Christmas Story about Paw, Cletus and the Reg Boys. Although resurrections are more in tune with Easter and Little Hawk's cure.

Ooops! Why don't we hear his music on the radio? He has a rich songbook.

Gordon's music gets a lot of radio play in various parts of the States, Canada, and across the Pond, but coverage and awareness vary. It's a wonderful wealth, for sure.
